A P.S. to the Seal Cove visit
The trip to Seal Cove also gave me a chance to reconnect
with Tina Weeks, daughter of Richard C. Paine, Jr. whose collection forms the
Seal Cove Auto Museum. I consider
her something of a "soul sister" on account of our car-collecting fathers. Here we are in front of the 1913 Peugeot which belonged to my father, and then hers (with ownership by Dr. Sam Scher in between Melton and Paine).

Seal Cove Auto Museum
A little over a week ago I did a talk about and reading from The Tenor of His Times at the Seal Cove Auto
Museum on Mt. Desert Island, Maine.
I had the opportunity to reconnect with Roberto Rodriguez, former
executive director of the museum, now its chief curator, who had invited me to
speak, and meet the museum's new executive director, Raney Bench.
You may recall that in September 2010 I did a talk at the
museum. That was before my book was published. (See posts from 9/15/10 and
Because it's such a long drive to Mt. Desert (although worth
every hour! I love Maine!) I asked my friend, Heidi Hoskin to accompany me, and
we took a few extra days to make stops along the route—at the Bowdoin College
Museum of Art in Brunswick, the Coastal Maine Botanical Garden near Boothbay, and the
Farnsworth Museum in Rockland. We
had a wonderful time on the whole trip, and were especially delighted with the welcoming
hospitality at the Seal Cove Auto Museum.
This is Heidi and me in front of the 1913 Peugeot "Skiff"
that was previously owned by my father.

Hershey 1958
I had a nice surprise last week -- a photo taken at the
Hershey meet in 1958 – sent to me by Alan Ballard.
He writes: "The photo shows our fathers standing next to
a 1910 Thomas Flyer Flyabout that once belonged to my father. (The picture was
taken by Ken Stauffer, a long time friend and past president of AACA who died
earlier this year.) The person in the middle is Tom Lester, who bought the car
from my father and is showing it for the first time. I believe your father once
owned a similar Thomas.
As someone who also was "born" into the
antique car hobby, I remember your father not only for his love of antique
cars, but for his musical talents. I still recall his referring to his antique
car friends as "squirrels'!
Best regards,
Alan Ballard"
It's always delightful to hear from folks who actually
knew my father! Thanks for the
photo, Alan. And on the subject of "squirrels," did you know my father had a license plate that read SQRL?

Summer of 1927
just finished a fascinating book: One
Summer – America, 1927 by Bill Bryson.
always like Bryson's work, and the subject of this book seemed particularly
intriguing to me. My father, helped by a loan from several Nashville
businessmen, arrived in New York City to seek his fortune in the spring of
July 4, 1927 my father made his New York radio debut as a member of "Roxy's
Gang." Roxy was impresario, Samuel L. Rothafel. "Roxy's
Gang," which was on the air from 1922 through 1931, was
broadcast on the National Broadcasting Corporation's Blue Network, Monday
evenings at 7:30. My father joined Gang regulars Douglas Stanbury and
Maria Gambarelli. (Over the years, such performers as orchestra leader Fred
Waring, tenor Jan Peerce, baritone Leonard Warren, and radio
personality Kate Smith were guests on the program.)
My not-yet famous father isn't mentioned in
Bryson's book, but I was fascinated to know how many other amazing things
occurred during that spring and summer of 1927—from Lindbergh's flight, to Babe
Ruth's home run record, the execution of alleged anarchists Sacco &
Vanzetti, Al Capone's activities in Chicago, the dedication of Mount Rushmore,
and on and on. A great read! And
for me, great background on what was happening at the moment my father embarked
on his career.

1893 Custom Built Steam Stage Coach
This is from the souvenir booklet for the Melton Museum in Norwalk, Connecticut (1949)
This photograph of my parents is actually from the December 7, 1942 issue of Opera News.
That was the date of my father's debut at the Metropolitan Opera as Tamino in "The Magic Flute."
This is the car as it looks today. (Thanks for sending this, Mike.)
This one, according to Mike, he bought five years ago. It had gone from Winthrop Rockefeller (who bought most of my father's collection from the Autorama in 1961), to Bill Harrah, to Bill Anderson, and now to Mike.
Unfortunately, none of the sales records or inventories from my father's collection survived--so I don't know when my father bought the car, from whom, or for how much.
I don't personally recall the car, as it stayed pretty much on display in the museum. Although I'm sure it ran; all of the cars in the collection did! But it was not one of the cars my father drove frequently to meets, etc., like he did the 1907 Rolls Royce Silver Ghost and the 1913 Mercer Raceabout. Those I do remember riding in frequently (and have photos to prove it).
I wish I knew more about this unusual vehicle.

Melton Museum in Norwalk, CT
I've purchased many unusual items of Melton memorabilia on e-bay over the years, and even connected with a couple of cousins I didn't know about (we were bidding against each other on some item, and I e-mailed to find out who they were). But my latest foray to the auction site yielded a Melton Museum souvenir catalog of cars in the Norwalk, Connecticut collection that has a reserve price of $1,500! And a "buy it now" price of $2,500. Whoa! I'd love to know if the seller gets any bids. I have half a dozen of these catalogs in my collection.

Nice review of my book
Here's another nice "bolt from the blue."
Back in 2004 I had some correspondence with Jim Pegolotti, author of a biography of Deems Taylor (1885-1966)—the American composer, music critic and promoter of classical music. I had enjoyed his book (Deems Taylor: A Biography, published by Northeastern University Press in 2003), and wrote inquiring if there had been any connection or interaction between my father and Taylor. There hadn't. But Jim was kind and encouraging about my project.
At any rate, last month I had a nice letter from Jim, saying he had read my book, and here is what he wrote about it:
"You have written a uniquely compelling biography, for while your ostensible purpose is a chronology of th life of your father, you have written a fascinating story of three people: you father, your mother and you. A biography written by someone who lived with the subject provides a stronger emotional reaction on the reader than one written by a 'stranger.' With the exceptional letters of your mother covering the early years, the your recollections coming firmly in your father's final years, nothing could come closer to giving the reader the sense of a singer who ultimately lost control of himself. I suppose he gave in to the power of fame. And yet what a wonderful voice."
Thank you Jim!

Jackson Brewery, shopping and dining in the old brewhouse
The Shops at Jax Brewery are located on Decatur Street, in the heart of the French Quarter, New Orleans. The brewery is over 110 years old and now serves as a shopping mall and is a great landmark of the City of New Orleans.
The brewery was the largest independent brewery in the south that was designed and built by German Dietrich Einsiedel. The brewery is now a mall with four floors of shops, attractions, restaurants, bars and cafy's. Magnificent views of New Orleans are able to be enjoyed throughout the mall.
Stores within the mall include Big Easy T-shirt Company that sells New Orleans related shirts and souvenir items, Chico's sells private label designs with personal service. Gumbo Kids sells custom painted shirts, hats, bibs and more for children. Shoppers can choose their own or create their own.
Jax Art Gallery has posters, prints and postcards featuring the work of local artist and is able to matte, frame and post items to the shopper. Street Scene has limited edition hand painted woodgraps that are woodcarving exclusive to New Orleans and depict Historic scenery from New Orleans.
Dining on the first floor of the brewery is Lazy River serving New Orleans cuisine, local seafood and comfort. This restaurant has a dining room and a terrace that overlooks the French Quarter and Mississippi River. The Lazy River is open for lunch and dinner Wednesday to Sunday.
The food court on the second floor has Hotsy's Grill that serves burgers, sandwiches, jambalaya, baked potatoes, hot dogs and salads. New Orleans Fried Chicken served rotisserie style chicken, onion rings and of course Southern Fried Chicken. Plate lunches and dinners are served with vegetables and breakfast is served from 8am.
The Jax Promenade Balcony is a place for visitors to spend the afternoon enjoying the sites of the Mississippi and the City.
The Jax Collection is located on the second floor and is part museum, part shrine to the Jas brewery.
Pat O's is the second location of Pat O'Brien's and is a great location to host private parties in the 6,500 square foot facility. Pat O's is located on the third floor and has a 17th century charm. A spacious terrace overlooks the Mississippi River and inside is a magnificent copper topped piano.
Located on the fourth level is the Riverview Room. These open spaces along with outdoor terraces present a panoramic view of the Mississippi River, the French Quarter and the CBD. This room is available for wedding receptions, meeting and banquets.
All stores in at Jax Brewery offer Tax free shopping for international visitors. Louisiana is the only state in the US that offers this to international shoppers. Shoppers just request a voucher and show their passport when making a purchase; they then take their receipt to the Tax Free Shopping refund centre at the New Orleans International Airport to redeem their 9% cash refund.

For team owner Buck Buchanan every day at the Huntsville track is a rush. The noise. The dirt. The roar. The furor. NASCAR's golden boy has only one regret: Jenna Williams. Not that he blames her for ditching him twelve years ago, but now she's back and has thrown a red flag.
Jenna is downright frantic, clutching a ransom note demanding a cool million in exchange for her daughter's safety. Their daughter's, actually. Yes, she knows how it looks asking Buck for help. But it's true. The child is theirs and Buck's the only one who can wrench her out of danger.
Even if that means trading himself for a girl he's never known.
At the age of nine, Debra began writing stories for the characters who lived in her too-vivid imagination. By 18 she had turned wife, mother, and career woman, leaving her writing behind. But those imaginary characters just wouldn't go away.
For the next 18 years she did everything from managing a Captain D's seafood restaurant to holding an executive secretarial position at NASA, while the characters and their stories continued to traipse around inside her head. Eventually they just had to come out and Debra began the journey that would take her to where her heart had been all alongwriting romance.
Debra was born in Alabama, but now lives in Tennessee. Her journey, however, wasn't a simple trek northward to the Volunteer state. First, Debra, her husband, and oldest daughter did a little traipsing of their own. From Texas to Berlin, Germany, Debra followed her husband's military assignments. Finally landing in Tennessee, they had their second daughter and settled for the rest of their lives in a small community they fell in love with on sight.
Write Debra with your comments at P.O. Box 64, Huntland, Tennessee 37345.

I have pruned my citrus trees to get the dropping branches off the ground. Now of course grass and weeds are moving in with all the new sun shine. Is roundup a good choice to control the weeds?
Randy |
Follow-Up Postings:
How many trees do you have? I use generic roundup for my field trees; but for my garden trees I use a hoe! |
There is a flurry of research now out about the potential for glyphosate containing products causing problems to non-target woody plants via the underground rhizosphere. The rhizosphere is a very complex region encompassing the shallow (absorbing) root system, the soil system, and the microbial population. Here's the scary thing....the root systems of plants that cohabit an area SHARE the rhizosphere. Systemic chemicals applied to one plant can be communicated to the others via the chemical and biological links shared in that rhizosphere. I don't use RoundUp around the base of woody plants anymore. I don't know how many trees you have, but maybe some bales of Georgia Longleaf (or Loblolly) Pine might be a good option for you. |
Thanks, Rhizo, I hadn't heard about the glyphosate issues; I have been considering changing to paraquat generic instead; it is the same price but only kills the top of the weed without killing the root. |

What John and Rhizo said. Stay away from RoundUp under trees. And Rhizo's suggestion of pine needle mulch is a double win do to the small increase you'll get to the acidity of your soil, which citrus do like. You're much better off doing some hand-pulling. Then, mulch 3 to 4 inches with compost topped with wood chips. You're set! If you really want to treat your trees, add some worm casings to the compost. You'll smother the weeds, the few that try to come up will be spindly and easily pulled. Keep the mulch about 2 to 3 inches away from the trunk to prevent rot. Your trees will look exceptional, and you'll have the labor down to nothing. I'm all about the easiest way to garden, and mulch is my friend, lol! I have over 50 citrus trees, and over 100 fruit trees in all. ALL are mulched. In fact, my entire acre+ is mulched for both weed control and water retention. I do very, very little hand weeding. And almost no RoundUp (except for an occasional small treatment with weeds coming up in between my pavers.) Patty S. |
- Posted by Randy31513 Georgia 8b (My Page) on Wed, Apr 25, 12 at 14:49
I tried hoeing but the roots are so close to the surface in places. I have been using pine straw around the drip line but not up under the canopy. Thanks everyone for the advice. Roundup is out, pine straw is back in. LOL Thank goodness I have a lot of pine trees. Randy |
Be careful with the pH of your soil; some parts of Georgia soils are so acidic you may need to add wood ash or lime to optimize tree health. Pine straw will further acidify the soil... it is a large part of the reason for the low pH in the first place. Citrus do best in 5.5 to 7, and okay 5 to 8; outside that range production becomes a more intense exercise. |

Where to Go on a Powder Day at Aspen/Snowmass
Powder on the mountain is a little bit like whipped cream on ice cream — it makes a great thing even better.
But with a little more than 5,500 skiable acres across our four mountains, you might be burdened with too many choices on your next powder day at Aspen/Snowmass. Here are a few game plans for finding sublime fresh tracks on each mountain, and remember, if you really want to take advantage of the best snow at the start of the day, inquire about our First Tracks guided runs at Snowmass and Aspen Mountain.
Choose this mountain if … you want to find stashes of powder all day long.
Game plan for advanced skiers: Make your way to the top of the High Alpine lift. From here, head down The Edge and veer off into Hanging Valley Glades for prime stashes of powder on expert terrain.
Game plan for intermediate skiers: Make a bee line to the top of the Big Burn lift via the Village Express lift and Max Park. From here, you'll be spoiled for choice on Whispering Jesse, Wineskin or Mick's Gully. Jack of Hearts can have some prime powder as well.
View Snowmass Powder Day in a larger map
Aspen Mountain
Choose this mountain if … you want to see what all the fuss is about with its legendary steeps and glades.
Game plan for advanced skiers: Warm up on North Star from the top of the Silver Queen Gondola, return via the Gent's Ridge lift, then make your way to Hanging Tree or Face of Bell for excellent powder skiing in the glades.
Game plan for intermediate skiers: Ruthie's Run is a perennial favorite for locals, but if you're seeking powder, take only its upper part to Upper Roch Run, hit Gene Reardon's Run, connect back to Lower Roch Run and then bring it home on Strawpile.
View Aspen Mountain Powder Day in a larger map
Aspen Highlands
Choose this mountain if … you love skiing on a quiet run with nothing but the sound of your own breathing as you shred the pow,
Game plan for advanced skiers: You mean besides Highland Bowl? Any of the terrain off the Deep Temerity lift — try Kessler's or Boomerang Woods — is stellar on a powder day. If you like tight corridors of powder, seek out Sherwood Forest.
Game plan for intermediate skiers: You'd be hard-pressed for a better first run after a big snowfall than taking the Hayden and Meadows from the Loge Peak lift. But the left side of Golden Horn and Thunderbowl are a pretty close second.
View Aspen Highlands Powder Day in a larger map
Choose this mountain if … you want to carve sublime turns in the morning, and then give the terrain park a workout in the afternoon.
Game plan for advanced skiers: Take the Tiehack Express to the East Summit of Buttermilk. Timber Doodle Glade and Ptarmigan Glade often hold enormous mounts of powder among the trees, especially after an overnight storm.
Game plan for intermediate skiers: Hop on the Summit Express, negotiate down the short-but-sweet upper section of Savio, veer over to Buckskin and cut through to Ptarmigan before linking back up with Buckskin to the base.

Take your personal server home (1307 comments)
At the large company I worked for, hooking up personal computers to the network was a terminable offense. So no, you don't give them a login - you don't set this up at all.
The chief reason appeared to be fear of viruses and hackers, but there are many, many more. The hacker front can be a bit obscure: What if your CEO read the article about RSA getting hacked by an excel file with an embedded flash object, and the CIO assures the board that all computers will have flash removed and tasks IT with identifying and removing flash everywhere? How are they going to look having to explain 'well, we got everything, except for the personal computers that we don't have access to'?
Lets say people start relying on the service you are providing with a personal computer under your desk. What if it goes down? Helpdesk will get called, and need to know what to tell the caller so they don't appear incompetent, and need to be able to address the problem. What if IT is required to certify that all of their computers have X patch applied as part of a compliance audit for certification? What if a corporate policy goes out that no computer can run unecnrypted ftp regardless of port # they run it on? What if your company is obligated to ensure that terminated employees can't log in to servers? What if a lawsuit is served and your company is required to provide copies of all records pertaining to meetings with client xyz, and your calendar server has meeting info on it but your IT department doesn't even know it exists? None of these things are unreasonable, but none of them can be done easily if you're allowed to set up whatever box you want doing whatever.
Sure, it makes your job harder if you have to go through official channels to get the things you need to get your job done. But your company needs to be able to get their job done too, and a bunch of random whatever-somebody-set-up-under-their-desk systems makes that really hard.

I miss doing web work with Tcl, but I don't want to support yet another does-this-client-support-this testing and special casing nightmare.
Re:You have to keep buying (507 comments)
We had a very different system in the US.
Specifically, banks invented a whole ton of things that don't work like that.
Example: "Interest only" loan (you pay 0 principle for say 5 years, at the end of 5 years you still owe everything and your loan expires. Sounds terrible, but if you think the house will appreciate significantly, in five years you will owe X but it will be worth X * 1.5 - boom you now have a 25% down payment automagically when you refi the next loan. The payment can be a fair bit smaller each month if you aren't factoring in "eventually pay the darned thing off".
Fails miserably if the house goes down or even stays about the same and you can't refi. So people 'walked away' from the house - just quit paying, moved out when the bank made enough fuss. Technically they can still owe money, but if they have no money, and lots of people are doing it, who's to collect what?
They also did stunts like short-term adjustable rate mortgages- give you a introductory rate for a while (a few years, a few months, many variations) to get the initial payment down, bump it up hugely when the time is up. You have probably seen something like this with credit cards, now imagine the same introductory teaser offers but on a half a million dollar house. Sure, if you can make the payment for 30 years you keep the house - but the payment doubles or triples after a little while, and how can you keep paying it?
Finally, even with normal loans, people would participate in taking out way more loan than they could afford on the idea that they will make more money later. Banks were happy to cooperate, encourage, even help them lie about their income, sometimes even lie for them with outright fraud, because the bank was paid only for closing the loan and immediately flipped it on to an investor (often quasi-government institutions Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac) who would divvy the loan up and resell it in packaged slices to other investors. So the person making the initial loan wasn't directly on the hook for any extra risk they took on, unless a court could prove outright fraud occurred. Encourages people to play fast and loose with any rules that might be in place because they judge their personal risk to be very very low, and if somebody else takes on extra risk, well, heck, "Buyer beware" and "sucker born every minute" etc.

You know, Netflix's silverlight player runs great on my Mac. I actually prefer it to Hulu's Flash player, because it can maintain full screen on a second monitor, which is a feature they added after complaints in forums. The Flash player got the same complaints, but no fix. Flash users have to hex edit their dll for that feature.
I was worried about suboptimal multi platform support, but in this one useful-to-me-example, I haven't seen it. Have you seen other features where it's a problem?

I see they are currently #1 on bing for Comforters and #4 for dresses. I wonder if it would be possible for the search engines share data on who is cheating?
I'm actually really surprised by the article, that it took so few sites to affect results and that such obviously off-topic links still helped. I thought the algorithms were already smarter than that.
Re:So, the system works? (725 comments)
The chains don't have a good supply either. You can find book #4 and #7 in a popular series, and anything else they will be happy to special order for you.

From the article summary, this is a *500* page book on the topic of using an app framework with a packaging system.

Web game security 101 (105 comments)
1) First, you have to protect your users. I'd say there are three things to worry about here:
- SQL Injection. "Little Bobby Tables". This one is easy - use bind variables for all sql, and don't -ever- have dynamically interpreted sql with user inputs.
- Cross Site Scripting ("XSS"). This one is harder. If you ever display something to one user that could have been entered by another user, user b can own user a with some html. It's very hard to check for bad html because it can be disguised in various ways. A whitelist filter of allowed html is safer than a blacklist, but you still have to manage to consistenly scrub input.
- The fact that passwords are essentially inadequate, but it's hard and/or expensive to come up with anything better. So force decent passwords, remind your users not to give them to their friends, and anticipate there will be some level of "my angry ex boyfriend deleted all my stuff" support requests so history logs of important actions and the ability to roll stuff back will be useful.
- There *are* more types of things that can be done ("clickjacking", "sidejacking", dns poisoning) but I think the above cover most problems you really need to plan on.
2) Next, you have to protect your game.
- Malicious users. It's particularly easy to be a malicious user with HTML - the web app provides a nice form variable "itemid=12", I can change it to "itemid=1", poof I have your super wizard staff. You can't trust your users, ever, so write your app so that impossible things aren't permitted.
- Bots - if there is any instance where user activity is rewarded, somebody will find a way to automate it. It's a problem from a purely technical server load perspective, and it's also a problem from an upsetting good users viewpoint. Good luck here.

Well, in the anecdote game, my car was stolen. When it was recovered beat up and broken and abandoned out of gas on the side of the road, the cops didn't even bother to check for prints. They advised me to feel lucky I got it back and then went back about their business.
I get the general impression that your positive experience is the exception, not the rule.
Horrible article (799 comments)
This article is not 'reporting' and should not be presented as 'news', not even news for nerds, stuff that matters.
There are some very interesting details, things that might perhaps be facts, but after presenting a string of them they are always followed with utterly unsubstantiated wild ass guesses that claim to be absolute facts and firmly grounded in expert opinion etc etc. While the Wild Ass Guesses may actually be true, they aren't facts, and presenting them as facts makes it impossible to believe any of the other information presented. At the end of the article all of this much vaunted expertise that the guesses are based on turns out to be this guy is some random programmer with a pond in his back yard.
This topic definitely needs some real reporting, but this sort hysterical speculation (includes quoting Revelations and speculating on this being an "Earth Extinction" event under the general premise of "they said this couldn't happen but it did so this other thing that also can't happen is obviously worth speculating about now") is downright irresponsible. Even if the premise that the news is massively underreporting the size of the spill is true, this is not the way to correct it.

As they collapsed in each other's arms he could feel beats of her heart recede to a normal rate. Never before had he felt this passion. Never as a teenager or with his first love so many years ago.
They had such diverse backgrounds. She was older than him by a year. And when you're 44, what difference does that make? She did anything he asked, without reservation, and it was intense. It had been over a year since that first kiss.
The awkward meeting outside the restaurant that was closed. The separate drive to the Audubon center. The long conversation sitting under the tree about why they were both looking for a lover. She wasn't what he was expecting. She had very short red hair, big blue eyes, and was bepectacled. She was barely 5'3, but had lovely legs and ankles.
Her voice was warm and her manner sincere. Her story about her husband who had come out found a male lover and moved in with him. The sense of betrayal, and the loss of her own self worth. Her need to have a physical relationship with a man.
As he awkwardly told his story about the loveless marriage and the frustration of feeling trapped in a relationship. His resolve to stay married until the kids were of age. It was only four years. He could get through that somehow. But he needed and wanted something more.
Their conversations flowed easily. The feeling of comfort. Neither judged each other. They were there for the same purpose, yet they each had their own reasons.
He made her laugh. She hadn't felt like laughing in a long time. She wanted to please him, she could sense the lack of fulfillment in his life. As a writer, she could see him as her muse; and she could be his muse. She knew this could work.
As their conversation worked out to the end of its string, he looked at her and said, "I guess we ought to kiss and see if there's any attraction, here."
As they moved toward each other, a car drove by and they pulled back. They both looked to see if they recognized the car and driver, and realizing they did this simultaneously, they both laughed. At the situation and themselves.
He gently took her hand and pulled her toward him. Their lips met. The feeling was electric. The explored each other and the taste, the touch, the feeling was almost overpowering. They were lost in moment of that kiss, and if the venue had been different, they wouldn't have taken this to the next level.
She shifted in his arms and her movement brought him out of his memory of their first kiss. They were soulmates, and true to each other. But both encumbered by marriages of convenience.
SCJ -- Just fiction, but you thinking this was real is a nice compliment.
Dave -- That's too bad.
GA -- It's fiction...

LEOPOLD - Weather affected both of their contests Saturday, but the Marching Commodores performed "pretty well," according to Band Director Rob Cason, who said the weekend provided this year's first opportunities to perform their entire show.
Field conditions at the Castle (High School) Invitational limited the Perry Central Community School band to a standstill performance on the school's track, he said. They earned fourth place and best percussion and pit-crew awards there.
Editor's Note: Information for this article on trail fees in the Hoosier National Forest was provided by Les Wadzinski, the forest's recreation-program manager.

"Surrogates," Bruce Willis' latest, is an entertaining, yet unoriginal and problematic, sci-fi film. It takes place about fifteen years in the future, where robotic surrogates handle the day to day life for 99 percent of the world's population, while their owners control them from their homes.
Think of the world like a live action chat room, where everyone can choose what they look like.
TELL CITY - The summer of 2009 will always hold special memories for David McKinney. His soul-filled sounds filled City Hall Park monthly since May and won him the top prize Sunday as a Shoot for the Stars singing contest wrapped up.

Is PC Gaming "Dead"?
Re:It's the UI, Stupid (488 comments)
Ouch. But no matter how much I try I can never get PC games to run correctly.
I work as a programmer (Python) all day and I still can't figure out how to get games working without the occasional crash. How the hell my mom is supposed to -- I'll never know.

With the recent release of the Motorola Xoom, we wanted to add some more details about the state of Android currently. This past weekend, we experimented with the Xoom, and we can say that's it's by far the best Android tablet experience we've had.
With the recent release of the Motorola Xoom, Android has finally matured into the tablet space. Android 3.0 (also known as Honeycomb) has been designed with tablets in mind and takes advantage of the increased screen size to provide new experiences, while maintaining the Android ecosystem that millions have come to know and love. There have been several parts of the Android experience that have been modified for the tablet environment, including:
Bottom-Edge Status Bar
Found at the top of every Android phone, the Status Bar shows the time, your current network connection, and any notifications that you have outstanding. For tablets, this has been moved to the bottom of the screen and notifications have been made a much richer experience with larger graphics and more customizable text.
On-Screen Buttons for Home, Back and Multitasking
The basic navigation buttons provided on every phone are now made part of the bottom-edge status bar, leaving the front of the device without any hardware buttons at all. A new Multitasking button makes it easy to see which apps you've used recently, with thumbnails provided to make it even easier to spot the app you just left.
Context-Aware Action Bar
The top of the screen is still used on tablets, but now it provides actions based on your current activity. Removing the need for the menu button; this makes all interfaces more intuitive for the new tablet user.
Tablet Optimized Google Apps
Google has set the proper example by making it's own apps look and function great on the tablet form factor. Apps can function differently based on orientation, taking advantage of real estate without making the screen feel crowded.
Clearly Google is taking the tablet market seriously with Android 3.0, and there are already more tablets announced for this year. The G-slate by LG will be coming to T-mobile's 4G network later this year and it is certain many more will be announced in the next few months. So far no manufacturer has announced that they will be changing the standard Android 3.0 User Interface, which comes at a great relief to consumers and developers alike. This helps guarantee a consistent experience between tablets, and allows for updates to come quicker when newer versions of Android are released.
Other Recent Changes to Android
But tablets aren't the only recent changes to Android. Google has also improved their Application delivery mechanism with some big improvements to the Android Market. It's now completely accessible through any web browser at http://market.android.com. Once an app is selected, it can be sent to your device from the browser, no cables required. And there are lots of new ways for publishers to engage consumers, with more screenshots, more descriptive text and even a link to a YouTube video. In-app purchase support has also been announced for apps, with an SDK coming soon.

Have any of you tried this and had good results? Porthardygurl 06-04-2011, 01:30 AM Ive done this game..its intense..it gets tough..it makes you work..it works well..i lost 20 pounds in a month combining EXERCISE and DIET together to get good results..i used to burn on average about 600 calories..doing an hour of the box-fit and strenght training..i loved the yoga too..it made me feel stronger..and more toned..its worth it..if you give yourself to it. Ky30 06-04-2011, 09:05 AM I got it in Febuary for my Birthday and I didnt like it it just wasnt for me. I LOVE the wii fit thats all I have been using since December and it works. I wanna get just dance for wii too it looks like a fun good workout. QuillysQuest 06-05-2011, 06:46 AM I haven't gotten the BL game for my wii fit, but I've been thinking about it. Actually, I think I might get it for my Kinect instead though. Haven't decided yet. But I know that these games can be great at keeping ya active when you don't feel like going to the gym. Heheh :) What do you think of it so far Skye? Ky30, I got Just Dance for the wii, and I have to tell you it's not the greatest game. I was sooooo psyched when my hubby bought it as a surprise for me, but I put it in, played it for a bout 30 minutes and was bored. :( It shows you moves to do, but it has no real way of tracking whether or not you are doing them correctly. There is no game play to it either, like there's no way to advance or compete against others, that sort of stuff. I was really disappointed in it. Just wanted to let you know before you spend money on it. Btw, if you happen to have the funds to get one, the Kinect system is awesome for working out with! I got it for my birthday last month and I LOVE it! I got Dance Central for it and that game is SOOOO fun and so challenging. :) I love it. You get a great workout without even noticing your doing it! :) Anyway, don't forget to let us know how you like the BL for wii game skye! vBulletin® v3.6.7, Copyright ©2000-2015, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.

United Bank announces expansionMay 15, 2013 |
LONGMEADOW – Richard B. Collins, president and CEO of United Bank, announced on May 3 that the bank will soon begin a significant expansion of its current branch located in the Longmeadow Shops on Bliss Road. "When the landlord, Grove Property Management, offered us the additional space next door to our existing branch, we jumped at the offer," Collins said. "We have been in Longmeadow since 1997 and have been delighted by the warm reception given to us by the community. We opened our existing branch in the Longmeadow Shops in 2001. We believe that The Shops provides an excellent location for us to serve the banking needs of the Longmeadow community." Collins said the future branch will be a financial center complete with retail banking, mortgage, commercial, and business lending, as well as wealth management and financial planning representatives. "We understand the needs of the Longmeadow community," Jeff Sullivan, chief operating officer, said. "This expansion gives us the opportunity to create a new financial center that can serve all of the community's needs in one convenient location." According to Sullivan, the future branch will include a larger lobby, private offices, a walk-up ATM and safe deposit boxes. The branch expansion is anticipated to be complete by the end of the year with a grand opening in early 2014. The present branch will remain open during the renovations. The promotion of current Longmeadow Shops branch Personal Banker Teresa Parker to the position of Springfield Region mortgage originator was announced recently. She will work from the current Longmeadow Shops location in her new position. Personal Banker Nicole Skelly will transfer from East Longmeadow to the Longmeadow branch to fill that position. "We are excited for both Teresa and Nicole to step into their new roles. Our team approach to banking means they will both be serving the Longmeadow customers along with the other members of the Longmeadow branch banking team," Collins said. The Longmeadow Shops branch staff also includes Emma Mesa-Melendez, customer service representative; Kelly Bizon, branch operations supervisor; Lidia Ramos, assistant branch operations supervisor; and tellers Michele Duval and Victoria Gosine. |

I work part-time for the local newspaper (The Mill Creek View) as a copy editor and a few days a month helping my husband with his business. Mostly though, I am a full-time stay-at-home mom to our three great kids. I volunteer a lot and in my spare time, I enjoy reading and scrapbooking.
My oldest is Alyssa, who is 14 and in 8th grade. She's a combination of sweet and serious. She's very responsible and has just started babysitting. My youngest is Andrew, who is almost 9. He spends his days alternating between making us laugh and making us crazy. My middle daughter is Kelsey, who is almost 13 and in the 6th grade. She is very kind-hearted and has a wonderful sense of humor.
My husband, Todd, and I have been married since August of 1996 and will celebrate our 16th wedding anniversary this year.
I absolutely love ice cream. I seriously can't live without it at least twice a week. I also like pasta and chicken. I tend to eat all the breads and vegetables on my plate first, and only a few bites of meat.
I actually enjoy cooking. The only problem is that regardless of what I make, it seems only Todd and I eat it. So I tend to be a bit of a short-order cook most days. The hope is that my picky eaters will someday branch out. Until then, I guess I'll just make the same 4 meals that we all eat and supplement by serving a lot of fruit and cold cereal. :)
My favorite restaurant is Arnie's in Mukilteo, Washington. It's local and serves the best seafood dishes, combined with great service and an awesome view of Puget Sound.
I'm not sure if I would categorize myself as famous for this, but I make a really good summertime caesar salad with pasta that people have enjoyed whenever I have served it for lunch.

Well then, That was, unnecessary.
Eh, it's Cheese. He's just being silly.
So, is there something "special" about the Sanyo 4912? I'm assuming there is. The wife and I discussed it at length last night, and she really is not keen on yet another chest freezer in our basement (2 is enough)...but she's cool on a fridge conversion like this. But I'm just curious as to what the unique properties of the 4912 are that make it optimal for kegerator conversion.
1. It has no freezer section. 2. The way it's designed, there is a molded back "shelf" that can hold a 5 pound CO2 tank without any additions. 3. If you take out the front door molding, very easy to do, make a little free standing lip shelf, it will hold two cornies plus a ten pound CO2 tank. 4. With the 5 pounder, you can still use two cornies and keep the molding on the front door which some folks use to store yeasts, bottles, hops, grains, etc etc. 5. The front doors are reversible. 6. It's cheap, works well, can adjust the temperature and looks good.
There is no freezer section in the 4912 unlike most dorm fridges. The compressor hump in the back is also pretty small. I can fit 2 kegs in my 4912 and I didn't even remove the inside of the door (I keep my co2 tank outside the fridge though). Edit: Doh, Ol' Grog beat me to it by mere seconds.
Cool...looks like that's the way to go. So where's the best place to find one?
Would someone care to post pics of the modifications needed so that you can fit a 10# CO2 and 2 cornies in there? I am considering this model, and have a 2 keg kit with 10# tank on the way from kegconnection.com. Thanks in advance.
Best Buy carries them. They are running $209 on the website right now, but they go on sale at the store from time to time. I think I picked mine up for $169.

Help! Need Boy First and Middle Names for Last Name Harris
My baby is due in two weeks and we are having an awful time coming up with a name. We are looking for something that isn't plain (no Thomas, Daniel, James, Jon, etc), but that is still familiar (i.e. no strange spelling, strange sounding names). Also, we are looking for a strong name that would look good on a business card. Our last name is Harris and we like the middle name Bennett, which is also a family name. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks so much!
December 12th, 2012 05:16 PM #3
With a name as lovely but understated as Harris, you have many options. Bennett is a beautiful middle.
As Bennett & Harris are both 2-syllable names, I think you should select a 3-syllable first name for optimal meter. Something with a few vowel sounds to smooth out all those consonants would be ideal.

Your taste in names sounds pretty similar to mine. Something slightly unusual, still useable, with a somewhat familiar sound, but definitely not boring. That's how I describe it. Maybe I could suggest a few names from my own list?
Cain: I love this biblical name. The negative acts associated with it don't bother me in the slightest, although I suppose that's because I'm not strictly religious. It does have a familiar sound to me, but is certainly not something you hear very often, if ever.
Casper: There's a "friendly ghost" association. So what? I used to hate this name, and now I absolutely love it. The sound and everything about it. Besides, I assume that my children's generation won't even know who Casper the Friendly Ghost is. And this name has a few different, but legitimate, spellings such as Caspar and Kaspar. I can't really explain why it's amazing. It's a name you either love or hate upon first hearing it. I also suppose it helps me that I met a teenage "Caspar" while on vacation this past year.
Vincent: Classic, without being overused and boring. "Vince" is a nice nn, too.
Lawrence: This name has a preppy feel to it, imo. I like that it's familiar, but not common. I've only ever known one Lawrence and no one ever called him by his first name, which I thought was a shame.
So there's a few. Hope it helps! (: Good luck.Crushes: Casper & Isobel.

Most of you who follow Dr. Sinatra's monthly newsletter Heart, Health and Nutrition, the free weekly e-letters, and the blogs are pretty health savvy when it comes to knowing and controlling your heart risk factors. Having met so many of you at Dr. Sinatra's subscriber sessions, I'd even bet that none of you are still smoking. You know what a potent and toxic risk factor smoking is for the heart!!
But you may have some friends, and even family members, who you worry about as they continue to puff away. You know that's not the way to a healthy heart, not to mention healthy lungs. Well, while Dr. Sinatra and I were in Vermont recently, I happened to pick up a pamphlet distributed by the Vermont QuitLine that may help you get through to someone you know who's still smoking.
The handout is entitled "Secondhand Smoke and Your Pets," written by Mardi Richmond and published by California-based Journeyworks Publishing. Even I was astounded at the message in the brochure. As a longtime pet owner, I just hadn't given much thought to what second hand smoke could do to them.
Nicotine poisoning is toxic. According to this literature, cats living with smoking owners have double the rate of feline leukemia, more breathing problems like asthma, and higher rates of oral cancers (when cats lick their smoke-laden fur, grooming themselves delivers toxins to the mouth). Dogs cohabitating with smokers are at risk for lung and nasal cancers. Short-nosed dogs, like boxers, face higher chances of developing lung cancer, whereas longer-nosed canines like greyhounds are at higher risk of nasal cancers.
The nicotine and other chemicals found in cigarette butts, cigars, nicotine patches and gums, and smokeless tobacco are downright lethal for pets. Playful kittens and puppies must be watched carefully around these products. Ingesting any of these almost always guarantees an emergency trip to the vet.
Even hamsters and other rodents have higher rates of cancer from breathing tobacco smoke at home, because secondhand smoke has many of the toxic, carcinogenic chemicals and compounds that's in firsthand smoke.
The take-home message: many people, even smokers, worry more about their pets than they do themselves. In fact, they often take better care of their pets than they do themselves!!! So, if you want to try to help a smoking pet owner quit the habit, share this news with them.
To view or order pamphlets, visit the Journeyworks Web site. And remember, when you help a pet owner quit smoking, you save more than one life…in fact, it may be even "9 lives"! (Sorry, I just couldn't resist!)
